From 31e6cdefd377ae90bea5c6a4e1dc519793577a24 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan Date: Fri, 9 May 2014 15:36:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] metag: Remove TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG The Meta idle function jumps into the interrupt handler which efficiently blocks waiting for the next interrupt when it reads the interrupt status register (TXSTATI). No other (polling) idle functions can be used, therefore TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is unnecessary, so lets remove it.
